Happy with 4

I have been complaining a lot lately about how difficult it is to do thing with 4 kids, just because they are so young. Just making it to the grocery store is a challenge most days. I had an experience this weekend that taught me that I don't have it that bad. I had an opportunity to help my Sister-in-laws Sister when her van broke down as she drove thru town this weekend. It was just her and her 7 Kids (the oldest was 8). They were traveling from Missouri to California for a wedding. I personally think she is crazy for taking on such a trip by herself with all those kids, but she is a GREAT Mom. The kids were all very well behaved and very cute! I was thankful I could help her out and glad that everything worked out for her (even though her van is still in front of my house:). As I watched her take care of her kids and deal with everything she had on her plate I realized that my 4 cuties are not so bad and if she can handle 7 kids 8 and under then I can handle my 4. I'm also grateful to her for letting me help out. I need all the blessings I can get!
